My take on the walrus knocking on your door versus a fairy knocking on your door thing is that I don't believe in magic or fairies whatsoever and I'd still be more surprised by the walrus. A fairy knocking on my door means I've made one bad assumption about how the world works; a walrus knocking on my door – in Saskatchewan, in February – means I'm wrong about a great many things.
2010s Black Tumblr didn't die organically. It was killed. Not just by staff, not just by the porn ban, but by the white userbase as well. Black bloggers were (and still are) being mass-reported and harassed off the platform constantly. White Tumblr users would post gore in problack tags, racefake left and right in Black people's askbox, pick random AAVE to call racist/misogynistic/transphobic, etc then get the Black people who were nice enough to explain what it means to them mass reported for harassment, the list goes on.
#yeah people forget the black community on tumblr was once so visible and massive we had Events#the blackout has p much been forgotten#the popular aesthetic blogs that created things like the art hoe movement are GONE#black tumblr is still here its just suppressed by unbearable whiteness#thats why we all get genuinely annoyed by your silly little polls and posts proclaiming loudly that you dont know donna summer.#or james baldwin#black people had a very active and connected community here once with its own subcultures and we were sundown towned out (tags via @afro-elf )
Wake up babe, new life-hacks just dropped
“meme” is now the generic term for “stuff on the internet” btw. funny comments on Reddit? memes. funny posts on Tumblr? memes. Good tiktoks? oxymoron, but memes. Your great aunt’s anti-vax conspiracy theories on Facebook? memes. The homepage of The New York Times? memes, baby!

“It’s all memes?”
“Always has been”
A comic (?) about my love of weird little bats for this halloween
Reblog if you appreciate all the world’s goofy bats
All the leg muscles and feet studies I did to level up my anatomy drawing. It all started 17 months ago as part of an art challenge I started on my Youtube channel and it's finally done!
this is problematic of me (joke) but i really enjoy the splashing of french into english speech or writing. just adds a pizzazz
*adds a certain je ne sais quoi
see the problem is that despite around 8 years of french schooling the french language has utterly escaped my brain so even the most obvious set up i had created for myself by accident was missed by me. such is life.
*c'est la vie
god damn it
OP made this post unrebloggable but me and my bf made this meme in a fit of obsession and it had to be shared
Facts-I-Just-Made-Up: Befouling the collective consciousness since 2012.
a twitch streamer i used to watch just went live after years and i said in chat "hey man idk if you remember me its [old username] good to see you again" and he was like. bro. you were one of my first viewers ever. of course i remember. and basically the internet is epic and love is spread through it
did i tell u guys i got into an argument on twitter bc i said foxes are dogs and someone tried to bring up their actual fuckin. classification or whatever and i just said “foxes are dogs cause they are fluffye” and they kept arguing with me. the entire time i was like “you will not survive the immigration to tumblr you are lucky we are not there right now”
This is especially funny because they aren’t even right. Foxes *ARE* dogs.
No they aren’t.
yes they are. because they are fluffye.
OK yes they are.
Dog
Dog
Different family, but same order as @pictures-of-dogs
No, they are the same family. They are the same kingdom, phylum, order and family. They separate at the genus.
They’re a dog.
yeah they’re fluffye
theyre literally not dogs theyre not even fluffy. can we get science tumblr over hear or what!?
checkmate athiests
fluffye
okay but they literally are dogs, for those who are confused
If foxes are dogs, then so are wolves, coyotes, dingoes, jackals, and several other extant and extinct species.
Behold! A dog.
of course it’s a dog you buffoon. it’s fluffye.
Why on earth would someone think “BUT IF THEY’RE DOGS SO AR -”
Like yes of course wolves are dogs, where have you been. Jackals are excellent doggies! So are coyotes. Why is this confusing.
I love that this is literally two completely different arguments running simultaneously.
That guy up there who said they’re not even fluffy was thinking of sharks
sharks are also dogs. ravenous water dogs, but still dogs
Sharks can NOT be dogs they are SMOOTH
